Tessa the Duchess Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 OMG, only just caught up with this. Has anyone heard anything else about it? I've been watching the local news, I live a couple of miles from Camden. Seems vast parts of the market are toast Lots of the shops have been burnt out, the traders are all very upset. Lots of residents have been evacuated and The Hawley Arms (famous old pub) has been burned down They still don't know what started it or really where it started. The only good thing that so far there have been no casualties thank goodness. Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
